For an observer standing on the ground with h = 2 meters (6 ft 7 in), the horizon is at a distance of 5 kilometers (3.1 mi).

The Earth curves about 8 inches per mile. As a result, on a flat surface with your eyes 5 feet or so off the ground, the farthest edge that you can see is about 3 miles away

Humans can see from 380–740 nanometers (nm)

So, the answer is no, if you can only barely see 3 miles away, then you wouldn't be able to read the name of a boat 3.1 miles away.

I don't know how to do this

Honestly, I doubt a teacher can even give an actual grade for these because these are extremely debatable to people and are more useful just for psychiatric testing.

If you feel that your answer works, you can always right next to it and explain your reasoning!
